Chapter 1573: Why Should I Give You Access?

Patriarch Snowy Peak forced a smile and said, “Kiddo, well, we want to go to the floating continent to broaden our horizons. I’ve heard that the floating continent is one of the last remaining super-large-scale realms, and it drifts about year-round, which is amazing.”

Wei Ming hurried to nod in agreement.

Nie Tian refused in a tough manner. “The floating continent is not open to strangers.”

The nine Saint domain experts, who had come together, were silent again.

At this moment, seeing the arrival of the nine old men, many Qi warriors from other sects that were gathered on nearby meteors approached them curiously.

Many recognized the nine Saint domain experts. Some had thought that some of them had already died of old age.

“That’s Wei Ming of the Heavenly Sea Sect.”

“Eeeh, Patriarch Snowy Peak...”

After seeing the nine old men arriving at the same time and hearing about the conversation between them and Nie Tian from the people around them, the Qi warriors quickly understood what was happening. “So they came for the floating continent...”

During this period of time, they had watched many experts from the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, the Domain of Heaven Python, and the Domain of the Falling Stars swarm into the floating continent, and had seen divine light bursting forth from the floating continent, shooting into the sky. When they sensed others’ breakthroughs in cultivation bases and tools, how could they not be envious?

Naturally, they also yearned to enter the floating continent to look for the materials they needed.

However, most people had more or less seen Nie Tian’s sternness in the Domain of Heaven Span, the Domain of Endless Snow, and the Realm of Fragmentary Star. With the incident of the Soul-cleansing Origin Elixir, Nie Tian had already made it clear that his precious treasures would only be used on his own people.

Knowing that Nie Tian was very difficult to handle, most cultivators from other domains hadn’t dared to say anything despite their aspirations.

However, because the nine old men lived in remote realms and hadn’t participated in the fierce battles that had recently taken place in the Mortal World, they didn’t know much about Nie Tian. Hence, they had fantasies.

Wei Ming broke the silence by clearing his throat and saying in a frank manner, “We wanted to help when the outsiders from the Void World and Spirit World ran amuck in the Domain of Endless Snow and Seven Stars Realm Sea. Now, if we can obtain the rare materials that will help us advance to the God domain on the floating continent, we promise to lead all the experts of our sects to fight the outsiders to the death in the Domain of Forbidden Heaven.”

Another old man hurried to add, “We’re only a step away from entering the God domain. As long as there’s a little push, there’s a great chance that we’ll succeed.”

“Yes,” another man echoed. “We’ll also be more helpful if we reach the God domain. After all, you’re facing a large number of outsider grand patriarchs and grand monarchs from the Void World and Spirit World.”

Patriarch Snowy Peak chimed in, “Nie Tian, the Domain of Endless Snow has fallen, and the Heavenly Ice Sect exists in name only. I also want to avenge my disciples’ deaths. If I can reach the God domain, I believe I’ll be able to help you handle a grand monarch in the upcoming battles.”

As the nine visitors hurried to give voice to their intentions, Nie Tian looked at them with a half-smile. After they finally stopped talking, he shook his head. Pointing around at the onlookers, he said, “They fought the outsiders of the Void World and Spirit World in the Domain of Heaven Span and Domain of Endless Snow. However, they didn’t ask me to open the floating continent up for them.”

Then, he slowed down on purpose. “So... Why should I open it for you?”

In an instant, the nine old men’s faces all turned awkward.

“And you, Patriarch Snowy Peak,” Nie Tian said with a sneer. “When the outsiders appeared in the Domain of Endless Snow, you abandoned your disciples and left. If you hadn’t done that, with your reputation, you should have been able to rescue many in the Domain of Endless Snow. It’s hard to say if you’ll be able to break through even if you get to enter the floating continent and you’re lucky enough to obtain priceless materials. Even if you can, I doubt that people like you will be our main force in the upcoming battles.”

Hearing his words, Patriarch Snowy Peak’s face grew cold, and he said, “We were surprised by many grand monarch outsiders. With my Saint domain cultivation base, even if I stayed, my resistance would have been useless in the face of such powerful enemies. I only left so that I could fight another day.”

SWISH!

The Heavenbreaker’s sword light suddenly flew out of the floating continent like a turbulent river.

Boundless sword intent enveloped this entire area as the Godspan Sword Formation of the Heaven Span Pavilion emerged behind Yin Xingtian’s head, like a gorgeous peacock spreading its tail.

“The grade of my Heavenbreaker has improved a lot,” Yin Xingtian said as his eyebrows were full of elation.

Even though he didn’t display his divine dharma idol, he gave people the feeling that he was the god of all swords.

It looked as if the sword light of his Heavenbreaker was manifesting a variety of sword principles, while strands of sharp sword intent seemed to be answering his joy and crowing joyfully, as if they had their own intelligence.

Many people exclaimed in shock.

“That’s it!”

“The treasures hidden inside the floating continent must be unmatched. Even the Heavenbreaker upgraded again!”

“Patriarch Yin is getting stronger and stronger.”

Seeing Yin Xingtian fly away from the floating continent, Wei Ming of the Heavenly Sea Sect instantly shouted with great enthusiasm, as if seeing a savior, “Old Yin!”

Yin Xingtian looked surprised by the sight of him. As he canceled the Godspan Sword Formation and withdrew his Heavenbreaker, the sword light all over the starry river disappeared. “Eeeh, it’s you. Why are you here? I thought you’d died of old age.”

“No, I’m not dead,” Wei Ming said.

Yin Xingtian frowned. “But you’re nearing the end of your life. Since you’re going to die anyway, why didn’t you show up when the outsiders of the Spirit World ran amuck in the Domain of Heaven Span and the four ancient sects called in experts from every human domain? And you...” As his eyes swept across the other old men, his expression grew more and more unpleasant.

Wei Ming and the others were all his contemporaries. He had thought that since they had disappeared for years, they had all died. He hadn’t expected that they would all suddenly appear now.

“When we fought bloody battles against the outsiders, all these old men seemed to have shrunken into their shells, and none of them came out,” Nie Tian spoke with a sneer. “Now they’ve heard that I’ve opened up the floating continent, and that it holds countless magical treasures, they want to see if they can get some so they can break through to the God domain, increase their strength, and prolong their lives.”

“I see.” Yin Xingtian understood Nie Tian’s attitude.

He nodded and said to him, “Why don’t you go take care of your business? I’ll watch the floating continent. No one will enter except for those who have your permission. Even the people of the four ancient sects won’t be allowed to go in without your permission, let alone them.”

With that, he warned everyone present with his eyes, including the Saint domain experts of other sects who had long since arrived at the Domain of Forbidden Heaven. “There aren’t as many resources on the floating continent as you’ve imagined. We don’t even have enough for ourselves. There aren’t any extra resources that can be used to help you improve your strength.”

After Yin Xingtian had advanced into the God domain and obtained the Godspan Sword Formation, many people had seen his powerful fighting strength.

Except for You Qimiao of the Remote Beginning Heavenly Sect, there was no one in today’s Mortal World that he considered a powerful adversary.

Even Chu Rui, a middle God domain expert, was no match for him now.

Hence, he had said those words with great confidence.

“Fine, I’ll leave it to you. I’m actually quite busy,” Nie Tian said, then shrugged and left without sparing Wei Ming and the others another glance.
